1964 Map of Bailey Draw

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The West Texas ranchlands along the Crockett Co Schleicher Co boundary are defined by the winding paths of Bailey Draw and Buckhorn Draw. In the mid-1960s, this landscape was characterized by isolated homesteads and the emerging infrastructure of the energy industry. Ranching operations such as the Willoughby Ranch and Baugh Ranch anchored the rural economy, while several Oil Wells and a network of Pipelines indicate the intensifying subterranean resource extraction common to this part of the Edwards Plateau. A private Landing Strip near the Willoughby property highlights the vast distances between neighbors and the necessity of aerial transport for large-scale operations. The topography is meticulously mapped with ten-foot contour intervals, revealing the subtle drainages and ridges that dictated the placement of early ranch roads and Gravel Pits used for local maintenance.
